Please review the attached memorandum and map for an overview of our proposal.
Further action to be taken:
After gathering feedback from the Council, Council Members Dekeyzer and D'Sousa will work with council and city staff to produce redline amendments to our current ordinance in line with their recommendations. This proposal may be brought back for a second reading during a future council meeting. As is appropriate at the time, the council may choose to move the proposal forward through the appropriate process required to amend the appropriate sections of code and/or or adopt the amendments.
